The LEPIN "LEGO" for non sensitive types
Discussion
Just have a look on aliexpress and see who offers the best price, and has the best feedback. It's just like ebay.
Most people who have had issues have pre-ordered stuff. The Porsche is already out so there shouldn't be any problem
Having said that, I saw something yesterday to the effect that DeCool (another knock-off producer) will be bringing its own version out at the end of the month - but offering it in green and white as well as orange. They have previously done a version of the Technic Ferrari F1 car which was generally well-received, so it may be worth hanging for a couple of weeks.

A white GT3 would be tempting, as its a good base for an RSR mod...Most people who have had issues have pre-ordered stuff. The Porsche is already out so there shouldn't be any problem

Ill mull it over a bit, even the Lepin one is a good €90, which is doable, but i might just want that money for actual real car bits...

Personally I am hoping for these -
10019 Rebel Blockade Runner
10175 Vader's TIE Advanced
10134 Y-wing Attack Starfighter
10212 Imperial Shuttle
I have most of the newer ones by Lego, and will continue to buy real Lego for future sets.
Not really into modular buildings so the only other retired sets I fancy are -
10181 Eiffel Tower
10231 Shuttle Expedition
Considering Lepin are doing the Taj Mahal and Sydney Opera House then the Eiffel Tower is a real possibility.
Apparently I am in luck !10019 Rebel Blockade Runner

Typical, just as I head into a period of looking for a new contract with the domestic spending scrutiny set to max... Lepin 05050 (copy of 10178 Motorised Walking AT-AT)

t, I think once I've settled properly into the new role and house etc (just moved to the US), I'm going to be spending a fortue on this stuff, all those amazing UCS sets that you just can't get anymore without needing a re-mortgage!!
